Earth - Cyberpunk/Post-apocalyptic Future:
Sometimes in the early 21st century, a cult rose in the Appalachians, its members were called the Children of the Light and their leader for their religion was the "Light-bringer". What everybody didn't know was that the Light-bringer cult was almost global, and was thought to be occurring independently in Africa, Philippines, South America and North America. The CIA had started to piece together the Light-bringer puzzle before the great Global War II broke out.

After the dust settled, Eastport City became an City-state on the east-coast of the post-apocalyptic North America and had represented a new hope for anyone trapped outside of its newly built walls.

Because the Light-bringers forbade prevalent technology use, they lived off-grids in the Appalachians when the Global War II had started. The cult became a full-blown religious movement, they began to pester Eastport City-state.

Sometimes in the mid-21st century, Council of the Light had surpassed other religions on Earth. Global flooding was prevalent, flooding former major coastal cities. Eastport City was one of the few that had made preparations for the global flooding. Eastport City had survived multiple threats, from environmental, politics, economic and terrorism. When United States government had broken apart, Eastport City declared itself independent and established itself as Eastport City-State. Slowly acquiring former cities of US on the east-coast, it soon rivaled the New York City metropolitan area.

Near the equatorial zone, a collective of old-world powerful entities gathered together and established "Federation of Equatorial Zones". They established a gigantic wall on land and underwater mines in the seas and oceans.

Council of the Light established themselves in the FEZ as Dominion of Holy Zion became increasingly weak with each decades that unfolded.

Which faction would you choose? A denizen in DHZ, FEZ or a child of the light (CotL), Eastport City-state resident? Moscow Tunnel Rat? etc.

If you choose to become DHZ's. You would live in Central Asia (comprised of Middle East, Eastern Europe, Western Asia, Northeastern Africa. These are dominion of Holy Zion, situated in Jerusalem, Israel. They had militarized themselves against "blasphemers".

If you choose to become CotL, You have many choices, CotL's main directive is to spread Asherah's maternial light to every human. If they resist, eliminate them.

Choose to become citizen of the City-state, Choices would be randomized (a better perks will be given to your character) or select one of each level with limited perks (however can always work your character to become powerful one).
